King Julius sits hunched in his throne on the other side of Madagascar--the desolate wasteland side--drumming his fingers on the armrest and seething with aggravation. His scatter-brain thoughts have reverted back to his little brother, Julien, again.
"How I hate him!" he hisses, pounding his fist on his throne, "I dunno why, but I just feel like really hating him today. Maybe I'll declare war on him. No...not original enough. Kings are always declaring war. No, I need a much more devious plot. Something daring...something clever...something ridiculously insane--like me!"
He bursts out in insane cackling for about 15 seconds, then abruptly stops and frowns, looking depressed. Talk about moody. He picks up a hand-made dart and flings it at a target shaped like Julien. He doesn't realize he's missed until he hears the startled scream of one of his mangy lemur subjects.

Joel was out in the jungle, walking about. He decided to take a walk on this nice day, to clear his head. He would have usually been atop of the waterfall to do this, but he wanted to get away. He was thinking about random things, such as his future, and plans he was making. Around all of these random thoughts, he somehow started to think about his mother. It had been so long since he had escaped from Julius' jail. He continued to think about this, as he kept on walking, unknown to him, he was crossing from Julien's side, onto Julius' side.

Being insane, Julius has strange, fine-tuned senses and he somehow is able to detect a tresspasser on his turf. Rising up from his throne, his face twitching in out-of-control spasms, he stalks off through the dead foliage. He skirts around the outer edge of his territory and ends up creeping up behind Joel. He sends two of his foosa out to surround the stray lemur and keep him from getting away.
"Well, well, well," he chuckles darkly, stepping out of the shadows, "Look what the foosa dragged in. Do I know you from somewhere? Let me think. Hmm...oh! Yes, I remember. You were my prisoner!"
He hisses and gets in Joel's face, standing tall and narrowing his eyes so as to intimidate the other lemur. Meanwhile, the foosa pace restlessly around Joel, blocking his way of escape.

Tiki was sitting in the shade with Julien munching on a few purple berries. She could call herself the happiest lemur alive in the wild of Madagascar.

Joel was in such deep thought, he was surrounded before he knew what happened. He shivered as he heard that voice again. It was Julius. Joel backed away slightly when Julius approached him."J-..Julius?"Joel asked, in terror. He wasn't one to be scared, but he had a very bad childhood, and it was because of him. His mind raced, and his eyes darted around, trying to find an escape, but it was useless, he had him surrounded."W...what do you want?

"Oh, nothing much," Julius muses, calmly picking a piece of fuzz off his fur and flicking it at Joel, "Just a little inside information. Where's Julien? And--almost more importantly--where is his little girlfriend? Spill it or I'll choke the life out of your face and kick your can from here to New York City--whatever a New York City is."
He pokes Joel in the chest with a bony finger in time with every word he says as the agitated foosa circle impatiently.

Joel looks at him with terror in his eyes. All the memories... but... he couldn't. No, he wouldn't sell out Julien, or tiki. After all they have done for him. He was scared out of his mind of this Julius, but his friendship was more powerful. He bit his lip, and raised his voice"no..."

"No?" Julius smirks, snapping his fingers, signaling the foosa to close in, "Is that your final answer, my boy?"
Julius's face twitches in it's uncontrollable tics as he stares at Joel through eyes glazed with insanity beyond measure. He clears his throat and continues with his threats as another idea occurs to him.
"Did you know I've adopted some new pets?" he asks at length, "Two crocodiles--Rip and Tear. They're mates and they love each other, but do you know what else they love? They love to eat little traitors like you!"

*Joel looked at the foosa, then back at julius."..I... I'm not 'your' boy, and I couldn't care less about your dumb crocodiles...Of course, Joel might of sounded tough, but he was still scared beyond belief.

"We'll see about that," Julius smirks, seizing Joel by his tail and dragging him off with the foosa right behind him like obedient guard dogs, "How would you like to tell my crocodiles just how dumb they are, eh?"
Before Joel even has time to think, they are at the pit where Julius keeps his aquatic "pets". Julius pushes him to the lip of the pit and keeps him there with the help of the foosa.
"Go ahead," he says calmly, though the insanity is brewing just below the fragile surface, "Tell them what you just told me. See what they think?"

Joel tried to get free."Let go of me!"Joel looked down at his 'pets' and was in shock. He was starting to see his whole life flash before his eyes."Why are you doing this to me?!

"WHY?!" Julius barks in Joel's face, loud enough to blow the other lemur's fur back, "Let me answer your question with a few of my own. Why am I here in this desolate wasteland while Julien gets the entire kingdom? Better yet...WHY WON'T YOU TELL ME WHERE JULIEN AND TIKI ARE?!"
He stops, seething with fists clenched at his sides and teeth gritted tightly in demented rage as he holds Joel captive in his frightfully insane, unblinking stare.

Joel looked at him, no longer filled with fear and said."Why are you over her while julien has the entire kingdom? Maybe its because you set fire to half the jungle?! Why wont I tell you about julien and tiki? Because, they're my friends! Friends! Yo know what they are? You could use some.

"I don't have friends and I don't need them," Julius growls, narrowing his eyes a Joel as the mention of the fire strikes a nerve, "I have all the company I need right here. And since you won't tell me where the lovebirds are, I'll just have to find them myself--and with all the noise my idiot brother makes, that shouldn't be too hard."
He grins wickedly and rubs his paws together, glancing over his shoulder at the drooling foosa awaiting the orders to tear Joel to pieces. However, this is an order that will not come--not yet anyway.
"Even though you have enraged me to the point of wanting to stuff your tail down your throat and watch you choke to death, I've decided I will spare your life--for now," the crazy lemur smirks, "I want you to be there when I bring Julien's reign to ruin."

Joel looks at him with that fearfully look again."What are you going to do with me until then?"Joel quivers at the thought. He was hoping not the jail, where he had spent most of his childhood. He had developed a fear of small spaces since than.

"Well, I was going to lock you in the dungeon, but I'm going for a new style," Julius muses, "So I figured I'd scar you for life by locking you up in a bamboo cage dangling over the crocodiles."
Julius snaps his fingers at the foosa, who immediately seize Joel and stuff him in said bamboo cage. Julius then lassos a tree branch with a vine and attaches the other end to the cage, then he kicks the cage off the ledge and lets it swing back and forth over the crocodiles.
"You just hang in there while I go find out where your leader is," Julius chuckles darkly as he waves "bye-bye" to Joel and mounts a foosa to ride it into Julien's territory, "Oh, and if I were you, I wouldn't breathe too much. The crocs don't like that."
OOC- This will have to be my last post for tonight. This has been fun! I'll see ya later. *waves*

*Joel looked around, then at Julius."You no good, excuse for a lemur! I swear on my mother's soul, when I get out of here...."Joel realizes that Julius had already left, and now, he was stuck with the problem at hand.... he was in a cage dangling dangerously close to 2 crocs. Joel scanned his surroundings for anything that he might use to escape. Then, he thought of a plan. It was a dangerous one, but it was the only option he had. He was going to try to taunt the crocs into smashing the cage. He makes his peace with god, then looks down at the crocs."Hey, you! Yea, you! Swamp breath! Bet you'd like a piece of this!"Joel shook his 'tail' at the crocs.OCC: It has been fun. I'll catch ya on the flip side. Peace!

Meanwhile, Julien is quite enjoying Tiki's company as he babbles on about what a "wise" king he is. Of course, all his good ideas were originally Maurice's, but what the others don't know won't hurt the, right?
"So what do you tink of de food here, Tiki?" Julien asks, just trying to strike up a little meaningless small talk just so that he might hear Tiki's voice, "It must be more nourishing den de dried up crusty stuff on de udder side of de island, yes?"
He leans back and pops a berry up in the air and catches it in his mouth and...he chokes on it. Punching himself in the chest, he finally spews out the lodged berry and forces a grin around his choked coughing.
"I meant to do dat," he assures her, trying not to look stupid in his moment of show-offy stupidity.

"What an idiot!" Julius hisses, stalking his brother from a safe distance behind some broad-leafed bushes, "He thinks he can impress her with his stupid clumsiness? Let's see how impressing he is when he's as dead as a...a...a lifeless lemur!"
He chuckles wickedly as he reaches a bony paw out and pushes one of the tiki torches over, spilling the flames out onto the ground. Though it had been an accident more or less, he had almost brought down his father's entire kingdom with fire. He can certainly do it again--only this time, it will definitely bring down Julien's reign and it obviously would be no accident.

The two crocs didn't seem to care about Joel's taunts, so he was forced to come up with another escape plan. He thought to himself: "What I am going to do...." He looked at his cage and instead as looking at it as his cage, he looked at it as a piece of workmanship, and it wasn't a very good one."Look at these bindings... they're not that tight... god, if I can make stuff like this, I can sure as heck take it apart!"Joel began to work away at the top corners of his cage. After a few minutes, they started to come apart. He worked at them for awhile more, then he started to kick the top. After he did that for awhile, the top of the cage flew off and Joel grabbed on it, as the bottom of the cage fell into the pit. Joel wasted no time climbing up the rope before the crocs got too hungry. He climbed his way up the rope and to the tree it was tied. He laid on the ground, tired, then he remember that Julius was out after Julien and Tiki. He jumped to his feet and took off back to Julien's side.

"Never better. Never better!" Julien assures Tiki, doing a back flip, landing...and breaking into a coughing fit, "Okay, den...mebbe I'll be 100% better if I just get a drink of water. Be right back."
Julien turns around to start walking toward the drinking pool--and nearly walks right into a wall of flames. He stares for a moment, blinking stupidly before his brain actually grasps what is going on.
"Aaaaaaaaahhh! Run for your lives!" he screams, running in aimless circles and waving his paws in the air like an idiot, "Fire! Fire in de jungle! Evacuate! Evacuate immediately! Run for your lives! Women and children first--no! Women and kings first!"

Joel was a few minutes away, when he See's the smoke."oh no... julius..."Joel continues to run back to Julien's side, when he gets there he comes up behind.... julius."you!"Joel said, picking up a branch off the ground...

"So, you escaped, eh?" Julius mutters, tapping his chin with his paw, "You're not as stupid as you look. Hmm...oh well. You're just in time for the grand finale! The very last party that shall go out with a BANG! A snap-crackle-pop! Goodness-gracious--GREAT BALLS OF FIRE!!!"
Julius dances in circles around Joel, taunting him as he carries a burning stick in his paws. He pauses every so often to touch something else with the flames and set it ablaze, cackling maniacally as various plants crackle and glow as the fire consumes them.
"Who's the life of the party now?!" he shouts wildly, the red flames reflecting in his insane eyes, "The fat lemur has sung! King Julien is finished! FINISHED!!! Do you hear me?!"

Joel watched Julius, jumping around. He raised the branch to his shoulder like a baseball bat."Hey Julius, hows this for a bang?"Joel swung his 'bat' and cracked Julius up-side his head.

Being that Julius is nuts, a blow to the head doesn't phase him much. Indeed, it does hurt, but it doesn't alter his consciousness at all. The most it accomplishes is it successfully fuels his rage.
"Oh, you're a real funny man, aren't you?" he growls, "How's this for comedy?"
He doesn't retaliate by doing anything to Joel personally where immediate physical injury is concerned. Instead, he sets fire to the grass in a perfect circle around the other lemur, trapping him in a ring of fire. Then he touches the torch to the big baobob tree where the plane had crashed and steps back to watch the flames climb the massive trunk.
"Burn, baby! BURN!!!" he cackles maniacally, then starts to do some lousy disco dancing, "Disco inferno! Mwa-ha-ha-ha-ha!"

Joel looked around. He couldn't stay here, so he used his branch and jumped over the wall of flames. Joel hopped over and grabbed the flaming torch from Julius and threw it away. Joel whacked Julius again with a fist."Let's go..."

"Tiki! It's a fire! It's a fire!" Julien screams the obvious, shaking Tiki's shoulders, "Dis is just like what happened a long time ago! It's happening again! What'll we do! We're doomed!"
He breaks away from Tiki and starts running in circles again, waving his arms and screaming at the top of his lungs--as if that is going to do anything to help his tribe.
